Artist Statement for Peter Fauland

I work as a freelance landscape and people photographer and concentrated on the mid-west of the United States of America in the last years.
Many years ago, running over the pages of a travel magazine, I spotted a small and rather unimposing photograph of some rolling hills scenery. The surreal look, the strength of razor sharp swingled lines, the richness in tonality was breathtaking and I thought to myself: “ This is a place I want to see at least once in my life! ”
I started investigating and it took quite some time before I read an enthusiastic article, written by a landscape photographer, about a place he called “The Wave”. Wave - if I had to summarize in one word what this mystic place is all about, I would say it`s a frozen wave of sandstone. I did not let up and in autumn 2001 I was rewarded, finding myself in front of liquid rocks …
The photographs you can see here are printed by myself in small editions of usually around 25 enlargements under the same conditions (using the same type of paper, toning etc.)
I use the one and only true landscape fine art film out there - AGFA Scala b&w slide film (at least the one and only one according to my opinion :-)
The films are scaned and then printed on Fine Art Papers of various types using pigmented inks on a color calibrated EPSON Stylus large format photo printer. This allows me to keep the perfect control of the printing process. The prints are supposed to have a life time of at least 60 years under gallery conditions.
All prints are delivered signed and with a certificate.
